rbthefirst 0 #1 Posted July 10, 2019 I bought a new carb for my C-120 from Ebay and the choke works backwards when hooked up. Where do i find the right carb? The numbers on the old destroyed carb is e235058. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Tuul Crib 7,339 #2 Posted July 10, 2019 to !!! This is a problem l encountered as well. Thats the Chinese carbs . I think all the Chinese carbs are that way . I had to do some mods on mine cause l needed the tractor running. You have to do a little detective work on orientation of the choke control by way of pictures.

Razorback 1,129 #3 Posted July 10, 2019 (edited) The carb I ordered for a 12 hp Kohler was from China, but it came with two different choke shafts so you could use the one that works. I will try to find the Amazon ad I purchased it from. That carb has been flawless. Edited July 10, 2019 by Razorback 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ZXT 2,401 #5 Posted July 10, 2019 I ordered one for my CC1650 and it came with two choke shafts. Haven’t found one like that again since then, so thanks for the link! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
roadapples 6,983 #6 Posted July 10, 2019 (edited) You may be able to use your old choke rod. Easy to switch if you file off the staked end of the screws before removing... Edited July 11, 2019 by roadapples speeling 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pacer 3,177 #7 Posted July 10, 2019 Better read the reviews on that carb, apparently many of them dont come with the second choke shaft. I just buy one of the cheapo ones and change the choke out from my old carb - just remember that the little screws are 'peened' and need to file that off and the screws should come out easily, also remember to catch the teeny little ball in the carb body when you slide the shaft out, it sure can disappear!! 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
